5 years of comments and "debate" and all of it gone up in a smoke

Makes it all seem a bit pointless in the end

We're gonna need a bigger boat.

Hot take - arguing with internet strangers often doesn't come from a good place. I find when I'm in a good mood (which I think I am today) I'm more likely to take opposing or nonsensical views in good humour rather than get riled up by them, which is not always the case. Sometimes I log in just to argue

Is this where the cool kids have gone from the politics thread? Seems to be

The cool kids were already here years ago, this thread is the bitcoin to the election thread's bloated fiat currency

So I'm guessing the two posts of Just Shoots that got deleted are probably responsible.. but

Does WWSPD post trade links here?


----------------------------------------------------------------------
New house rule: no trade links

In all seriousness, I set this thread up to discuss more around the "why" and not so much the "what" of politics and belief systems, but I'm happy if people want to use this to continue the politics thread chat. I imagine everyone's feeling a bit lost now that there's no thread to hurl insults on

Im not going to partake on a politics thread with an active OP tbh

That was the key to that threads success

What happened? I'm guessing one of the headbangers from the right went too far?! Always angry them folk

It wasn't always insults tbh. It used to be a really good natured thread.

It's blessing and it's curse was that there was no OP to delete comments and filter abusers out. You can't moderate a politics chat without political bias. At least that's my opinion.

I must have a been real late-comer then, all I've ever known was bickering, none of this pre-sizzle utopia

So is this our new home?
